About reproductive justice

Reproductive Justice is the human right to:

1. To maintain personal bodily autonomy (that is, to make decisions about one's own body, life, and future without violence, coercion, or external interference)
2. To have children
3. To not have children
4. To parent the children we have in safe and sustainable communities.

Reproductive justice will only be achieved when all people have the economic, social and political power and resources to make their own decisions about their bodies, health, sexuality, families and reproduction.

Does this definition feel relevant to your life? Would you be interested to learn and explore more? Is Reproductive Justice a newer term or topic for you?
If yes, we’d love to invite you to join us!

We will be sending location information and other details on Monday, August 17! If you have any questions in the meantime, please reach out to Cynthia Lin, Collective Power engagement consultant for Roots of RJ: cynthia@goldenrodcollaborative.com
